Almost two years ago according to Naylor on twitter.

Are you referring to a specific incident? From the coverage I've seen so far, both sides are as bad as each other, making up/adjusting statistics and facts to fit their narrative. Yes, and there will be a period of purdah for 28 days ahead of the referendum, a similar period as is enforced...

Which is why I said 'for example'. It's one example, it's a pretty trivial one, but it's one amongst many (and it doesn't rely on tariffs and quotas, which are the biggest trade barriers but also those that a post-Brexit UK would do the most to avoid facing). There is huge amounts of evidence...

I can go with the idea of it being a free trade deal. But that doesn't mean there's no strings attached. All of the EU's free trade deals with near neighbours involve the free movement of goods, services, capital, finance and people. In which case we have no control over EU immigration...

Sure. The short answer is because barriers to trade reduce trade. And some barriers are inevitable. For example, currently a UK exporter can ship goods to elsewhere in the EU without any official export documentation. If we left the EU (assuming this means also leaving the single market), then...

In a couple of words; economic growth. We have more trade with the EU than we'd have post-Brexit - trade means jobs. We have non-EU firms investing and creating jobs here because it gives them access to the EU and the Single Market. Brexit wouldn't end all of that; there would still be some...

El Presidente has got this completely nailed. Junior doctors are not (as far as I'm aware from media coverage and knowing a few) unwilling to participate in a "7-day NHS", indeed the majority already do. The problem is that Hunt, and the Government, want to run the extra services without any...

Met him once, he was very passionate about Bolton Wanderers, and very proud of the club and their role in the community. RIP.

Not really, because you don't answer any of my points. Let me put it another way - in what scenario do you think that a driver should be held responsible for his actions behind the wheels of a car? And what would you do about it in that situation? I fundamentally believe that driving a...

It depends on your definition of accident. I would say that an accident is an incident where no action could have been taken by anyone involved to avoid it. I think there are a very small number of genuine accidents on the road, and this is clearly not one. The driver of the car, whether...

This is a legitimate viewpoint - the problem is that no-one on the 'Out' side is talking about a version of being outside the EU where this would be the case. Because the 'Out' campaigners feel compelled to spin a positive economic story around leaving, they all have continued membership of the...

Practically every major player on the "Out" side (I think apart from UKIP) has conceded that, at least in the short term (who knows how long that is?) freedom of movement is more or less unavoidable, because unfettered access to the single market and freedom of movement go hand-in-hand. No-one...

I'm in, partly for personal interest (I do a reasonable amount of work in Europe's public sector) and partly because I have no idea what 'Out' actually looks like, and what the benefits are. For me, 'Out' could range from; Maintaining access to the free market, in which case we continue to make...

Aparrently on BBC Breakfast the CMO did give the baseline risk - see Guardian article (other sources may be available - this is where I read it).

Rubbish 2015, blaming it firmly on young daughter and the temptation of getting up with her for breakfast then getting the train to work rather than hopping on my bike to commute. 85 rides 1,550 miles 27,920 ft climbing Target for this year is; 2,400 miles At least two 100+ mile rides First...

I wouldn't bother giving it a second thought, it's a completely nonsensical point of view.

I agree with this. Have watched a few times and don't see any evidence of the taxi indicating until he starts the turn, by which time it's pointless. Cyclist could/should have been more careful. I don't cycle in London but on the rare occasions that I do 'filter' down the nearside I do it a lot...

As someone with left-leaning tendencies, I thought it was a pretty reasonable spending review. Do I agree with everything that he's done? No. But he's rowed back on one of his most controversial policies (tax credit cuts), hasn't taken too much away from individuals (although I dislike that he's...

That's not the definition of homeopathy though, is it? To *******ise the catchphrase, natural drugs that are actually proven to cure things are called drugs. Homeopathy is about the 'memory' of water, which is complete and total nonsense (and proven as such).

I've not started playing yet (hoping to get a couple of hours in this evening!) but my understanding of the leveling is this; At the start, you get 21 points to allocate. These can be added to SPECIAL scores (essentially attributes, which all start at 1 on a scale of 1-10), or used to purchase...
